Javier Ballesteros, Eldest Son Of Late Seve Ballesteros, Turns Professional.

Javier Ballesteros, and the 24-year old eldest son of the late Seve Ballesteros, has turned professional by advising the Spanish Golf Federation.

“I have taken the decision of turning professional and this is something I have always wanted,” he said.

“Whether I will succeed or not, time will tell; however, I do not want to regret not having tried my best, and must give it a go. I know it will not be easy and I am aware of the hard work required, but I must try.

“My father had a long and difficult start in golf; mine is a bit easier, although I have a disadvantage in that sense: everyone will always compare us and will expect from me, not what my dad achieved but half of it……. which is already a lot.

“I have set myself no goals. I will go step by step and will start at the Alps Tour’s Qualifying School. As we say in golf: one shot at a time and living the present. I am very motivated and convinced that I have taken the right decision. I have a lot of self-confidence.

“Today, my dad comes specially to my mind. He taught me everything or almost everything I know about golf, and I would have loved him see me turning pro. I am sure he would be very proud and happy”.
